Best Bluegrass strings I've found for my D-18
Review by Joseph B. on 29 Jan 2025 review stating Best Bluegrass strings I've found for my D-18 I've put a lot of different sets on my D-18 looking for the most playable and to my ear, the best sounding. They need to be in the medium weight camp to move the big top and get the most out of the guitar. As a bonus the Monel are some of the most finger-friendly I've played. The Tony Rice signatures strings fit the bill. In warmer weather when my hands are feeling good I will sometimes use the Retro mediums. For all around great tone and fast playing a person would be hard pressed to find anything better than these strings.
